Smart Pin Yin Keyboard Layout (Mac OS X)

This keyboard layout allows for more natural entry of pin yin text in Mac OS X. Instead of searching for accents on the extended Mac OS X keyboard, just type chang2 to get cháng. When you type a full pin yin syllable and then a number 1 through 4, Smart Pin Yin will automatically add the correct accent to the correct vowel, even if the syllable contains such combinations as “ou” or “ei”.

Download Smart Pin Yin.keylayout
Unzip the archive
Place the resulting file in ~/Library/Keyboard Layouts
Restart, or log out and log in
Activate “Smart Pin Yin” in the “International” system preference
You can now switch to Smart Pin Yin from the keyboard layout menu on your menu bar
